Let Her Cry (Sam Winchester)

<Ellen, Dates and Medical School>

Chapter 10

Evelyn's POV

I woke up to jingling off keys and a man struggling with something. I sighed deeply before checking to make sure Sammy was still asleep, which he was thankfully. Gently I lifted his arm off off me and placed a pillow in my spot for him to cuddle with. I could hear the small desperate moan escape him as he slept, and the corner of my lips turned upward a hint. Quickly remembering what I was up for I turned on the small lamp in between the two queen beds.

"Dean?" I asked quietly, making Dean's head snap my way. He gave a small, embarrassed smile and waved. "Hey Lynnnn," He dragged out as I shook my head, resisting the urge to chuckle at his drunken state. "Dean, you're drunk." I answered as he gave me a small pout. All of a sudden he started to giggle. "I guess I am." He slurred and smiled at me. Giving him a small stressed smile I shook my head again. "You should get to bed, alright Dean? Oh and drink some water it'll help." I advised him like a mother would a child.

Obeying my my advice, he stumbled into the kitchen, with me following him just in case. Filling up a glass and sipping the water from it, he sighed. "Thanks Lyn, kinda helped take the edge off of the buzz." Dean thanked me and I returned with a warm smile. It proved that staying hydrated helped with hang overs and such. I was thankful it had enough effect on Dean to the point where he would be at least a tad bit more sober.

"Why exactly are you up right now?" Dean asked and glanced at me. I shrugged and then pointed a finger at him. "Well you weren't exactly 'quiet' when you waltzed in here all drunk." He chuckled and shook his head. "Fuck, I'm going to regret drinking in the morning for sure." Dean muttered and sighed softly. "Okay Lyn, I'm going to head to bed, you should too, well at least soon." Dean mumbled and yawned. I waved him off. "I'm fine Dean, you should take your own advice and head to bed now." I pointed out, as Dean nodded and scoffed. "When did you become so motherly?" He teased as I laughed quietly, keeping Sam's sleeping form in my mind.

"Shut it Wincheater, and get the hell to bed before I knock you unconscious myself." I threatened in a teasing form. "Night Lyn."

"Shut the hell up Wincheater!" I teased using the great nickname I had for him.

Being left alone to wallow in my own thoughts wasn't too pleasing but I shrugged it away. Make tea, that'll be guaranteed to help me. Standing up and grabbing a mug, I filled it up with already hot water from the sink that I also put on the stove for a few seconds. As I dunked the tea bag and added my milk and sugar, I got lost in a memory.

---------------------------

"Come on Lyn, you can't be upset with me!" Alec shouted at fifteen year old me. It was the first night that my dad had come home and actually beat me, and my brother and the Winchesters watched, well besides John. And it was all over stupid school work. My father was right, I was a nerd. I was a weird child, that nobody liked. Hunting was my life, and school was pointless just like he had pointed out.

"I can Alec!" I shouted back, my fists hanging at my sided shaking terribly and my face becoming red. The Winchesters sat on the couch, Dean and Sam watching carefully, ready to intervene and John, well he mainly watched Alec more than me. Alec scoffed and chuckled angrily. "Why do you have the right to be upset and pissed at me?" He yelled and threw his hands up in frustration. "Because you watched our dad BEAT ME, Alec, beat me! He likes you more than me and you have some sorta power over stopping him, but no you watched!" I yelled back equally as angry. If looks could kill, I'm sure Alec would be dead.

"Really Lyn, you're going to start the 'who's dads favorite' thing now? He loves us both equally, he was just drunk." Alec tried to convince me, but it sounded more like he was trying to convince himself. "DON'T FUCKING LIE TO ME ALEC!" I screamed on the top of my lungs, as looks of panic and worry washed over the Winchesters faces. "I'm not." Alec said through gritted teeth, staring me down as if I would look into his eyes and be compelled to believe him.
